Any recs for AirPlay compatible smallish/portable speaker? - pinkoos - 09-13-2012
I'm having some Bluetooth issues with the Jawbone Jambox I bought previously so thought I would at least investigate AirPlay compatible speakers to stream over wifi rather than BT.
This would be to stream from all of our iDevices as well as my Mac.
I don't need the "big" ones that are supposed to sound like a good stereo system. Just something similar to the size and sound of the Jambox, but using AirPlay rather than BT.
Thanks!

Get a refurb AirPort Express and the inexpensive powered speakers (like cheap "computer" speakers) of your choice.
All of the powered speakers or amplifiers that come with AirPort compatibility will cost more.

Thanks but I really like to have the portability of moving the speaker easily from one room to another without having to drag the Airport Express around with it.
